You are Hulk
You are a wanderer with amazing strength.

David was a hero. So was Sampson. Israel was waiting for a hero of that ilk to show up and wrest control from the Romans and back into Jewish control.
Jesus was not that hero.
We've grown up on superhero stories. In the nick of time Superman, Spider-man, Batman, Wonder Woman et will show up and save the day. But isn't it easy to be complacent knowing the hero will always show up just when things get sticky? Because life isn't like that.
And do we wait for Jesus to be our superhero? Do we still mis-judge Him, waiting for Him to show up in the nick of time and sort out all our problems? I know I do.
But Jesus isn't the alter-ego, pants over his tights type of hero. He is our hero, but flash, bang, kazoom isn't His style. He's already saved the day. He died for us, He made things right in His death. Sure He has 'super powers': He's God! It's the Holy Spirit who enables us to do, to be our own heroes.
We have our hero, but He's more the enabling, encouraging type. He gives us the power to be heroes, because we couldn't do it without Him.
